Template update – Vking Free

[Bertrand PASCAL]

Hi all

I’m trying Vking Free template v1.0.4 (Joomla 3.9.13) and I have seen than custom.scss file is already created in the template with 2 lines
@import “dependencies”;
@import “backtotop”;

Means, if you manage some code addition in this custom.scss file, these codes will be lost during template update?
Replacement of the custom.scss file ammended by the updated file with only 2 lines (opposite of Gantry spirit)

and last question, JoomLead template update use Joomla! Update System ?

thanks for your support

take care

We do not plan to use custom.scss to add the theme style so you dont need worry about the override while updating theme.

“and last question, JoomLead template update use Joomla! Update System ?”

In future, we will create custom path for pro and free version to update via back-end (software licensing), for now, you need to download and install manually via customer area.

Thanks for your quick answer

“We do not plan to use custom.scss to add the theme style so you dont need worry about the override while updating theme.”

today, on Vking Free template, particle backtotop and atom sticky are managed into gantry 5 custom directory
means in future, when update of Vking Free template, particle backtotop aand atom sticky will be managed out of gantry custom directory (one level up like owlcarousel particle)?
should be logical in my point of view to avoid any conflict in case of update or modification

thanks for your support

Hi Bertrand,

In future update (all gantry 5 themes), the custom particles scss will be added directly via theme scss, the custom.scss is optional and will be removed. So for existing custom.scss, after updating the theme, custom.scss still working without any problem 🙂
